- Replace src\powershell top level project by two
new root-level projects:
- src\powershell-unix
- src\powershell-windows
- Break src\Modules into more granular structure:
- Shared
- Windows+Unix-Core
- Windows-Core
- Windows-Core+Full
- Windows-Full
- To be created: Unix-Core. We will do it as a separate PR
- Fix#1122 : Platform-specific set of Modules (and assemblies)
- Fix Start-TypeGen to work with new top level folders layout
Instead of using `dotnet publish`, we can use `dotnet build` and the new
`netcoreapp1.0` framework with a new dependency on
`Microsoft.NETCore.App` to generate output that does not include the
runtime, but can be run anywhere (given the installation of the
runtime).
While we cannot yet adopt a dependency on the shared host until .NET
Core RTM, we are forced to switch to this system anyway because the
latest RC3 packages and CLI do not support `netstandardapp1.5`. See
dotnet/cli#2482.
Thus we're in an in-between state where we have to use `netcoreapp1.0`,
but cannot use `"Microsoft.NETCore.App": { "type": "platform" }` to
utilize the shared host, as we need to continue to ship our host.
Without specifying "platform", we retain the status quo with respect to
build steps and outputs.
Additionally, there is no longer a good reason to use the RC3 packages,
and it has been advised we switch to RC2 since the
`Microsoft.NETCore.App` is only available for RC2. We must update
packages because our current version can no longer be debugged.
The latest xUnit packages fix the "could not resolve coreclr path"
problem we were having. To resolve all dependencies, the cli-deps feed
was replaced with the aspnet feeds.
However, the latest xUnit packages do not allow us to set the default
AssemblyLoadContext.
With the switch to `netstandardapp1.5` framework for the host, the xUnit
test runner broke. For `dotnet test` to work with the .NET Core xUnit
runner, it must continue to target `dnxcore50`. Fortunately, we can
import our project's framework, and make everything work again.
Also improved the `xunit.sh` script to check for dependencies.
